Bikini-Clad Hilary Duff Is 'Chasing the Sun' In New Video

Is Hilary Duff's Chasing the Sun the 2014 equivalent to Sheryl Crow's 2002 single Soak Up the Sun?

Probably not, but it's a fun video! If you've ever seen Duff's ABC Family 2010 movie Beauty & the Briefcase, this video also has her in a cubicle (well dressed, no less) fantasizing about the outside world.

Only instead of dreaming of breaking into the fashion world, she's dreaming about hitting the beach in a teeny bikini.

This is Duff's first song in seven years, and was co-written by Toby Gad, Colbie Caillat and Jason Reeves. "I took a break from music for quite awhile, [and] it gave me the power to choose my next steps carefully. 'Chasing the Sun' is a light and fun summer song that I hope helps people to feel a little more carefree," she said of her comeback.
